Car won't start

I got into the car last night and tried to start my car...the interior lights will turn out faded but i cannot turn on my lights nor will the car start...when i try to start the car the lights dim more...i hear 1 click and thats it...my opinion is the battery or alternator...what could it be?

got ne neons or lighting or like a system in your car, basically do you have anything wired 2 the negative of your battery, if so that could drain ur battery 2 death lol, has happened 2 me, recently learned that hard way....but i have a warranty so free batteryz 4 me but try taking ur battery out n taking it 2 a autostore n they can test it free 2 see if its still good or not.
